My Summer Project - A mom bathroom

Denise Herald
Год(а)/Лет назад: 8

With the kiddos grown, I decided to take over their golf-themed bathroom and make it a girls only space. I started the project with a vintage piece of granite as inspiration. I then painted oak cabinets and added feet to make it look like furniture, added a backsplash, added new tile floor, and updated the 'hollywood' lights. I hope you like it! All comments welcomed and appreciated.

    quercus2: It is just the lighting - all the fixtures are chrome. Yes, this was totally a DIY. The only thing that someone else did was put in the granite countertop. Everything else was done by me.

    I think you did a lovely job. Cant believe you did it yourself, kudos' to you! The countertop inspiration that set off the project was the perfect piece to transform the space. I like your choice of the quiet marble backsplash and white floor, it lets the countertop take center stage. Great job.

    Phenomenal attention to detail in both the design and execution.

    Thanks Knockout Knobs, but I'm pretty happy with the hardware that I picked out for the remodel.

    What an awesome job! Love it all! My vanity is just like yours with the sink offset to the left-was it much trouble to center the sink with moving plumbing? Did you have to use a plumber for that????

    Wow, you did a great job. The only comment I have is turn the light fixture, so the light shines down instead of up.

    Beautiful bathroom! The transformation is amazing. The only thing I'd do is paint the baseboard white.

    Thanks for all the comments! I'll answer the questions.

    cordina00 I totally took my time on the project, especially painting the cabinets, and I worked only weekends a little at a time. Because of that, it took a couple of months to complete.

    house2514: It wasn't hard at all to move the plumbing over for the center sink. My husband was able to do it in no time. He just had to put in an elbow to move it over a bit. We didn't need to put any additional holes in the back of the cabinet.

    dramat1c: I thought about painting baseboard, but it's like giving a mouse a cookie and I wouldn't know where to stop. The woodwork goes up and around the linen closet and around the bathroom door. Then I would have two doors in the same baseboard wood also. It's all through the house - - it will be a huge project to paint it all.

    Thanks for all the positive comments! It's been my first rather large DIY project and I loved doing it!

    The countertop is Marble...very common for this stone to be sold as quartzite but it is marble. Brazilian Arabescato/Super White. Beautiful stone.

    Awesome job. My biggest pet peeve in my bathroom is the mirror. Why they put in one of those huge wall mirrors/medicine chests is beyond me - so dated & my house is only 12 yrs old. Updating just the mirror to one that is framed is just so classy - this makes me one to rip mine off the wall- lol. Love everything done here. Love gray & nickle/chrome finishes!!!

    Beautiful bathroom and choice of materials, but I agree with the others who have commented on the baseboard. It needs to be painted white. As is, the dark stain looks out-of-place with all the soft whites and grays. You would stop painting at the door molding.

    It looks beautiful! I am wondering how difficult installing the new tile floor was for a DIY project.

    babydoll6266: It wasn't difficult at all. The tile came in sheets of 12x12 from Home Depot. We did take the toilet up, which made it easier to work around it. If you have a tile cutter or a small tile saw, it will be very easy for you! Go for it!
